@KaspaGuru Would like to see $KAS as the settlement layer for AI agents. That's how $TAO and $KAS come together. 2 solid chains with different use cases working as one. I hold both and will continue to buy both.

The $TAO undisclosed ‘partnerships’ are literally everywhere If your favorite influencer started talking about TAO for the first time in the last 6 months, there’s a good chance they were paid to do so

@DreadBong0 Fucking pumped! $TAO

Are you ready?

@FuerstReuss @geert_stam @VictorVL_EN

@geert_stam @VictorVL_EN kind of spot on!👌🏾👍🏾 Its a simple explanation but there is much much more going on behind the curtain

Everybody wants $TAO to 5x But I feel like nobody is talking about the fact that if $TAO does a 5x, staking into subnets becomes a LOT less interesting ➤ Subnet market caps are correlated to TAO, so they would 5x too if that happened, which would instantly make them less attractive investments and make them feel less undervalued ➤ Also if $TAO performs that well, most people will start asking themselves: what’s the point of holding subnets, aka the higher-risk assets, if the mother coin is outperforming them? So if $TAO pumps hard, I think some (or most) subnets could actually end up dumping pretty hard against it Genuinely curious to hear what the community thinks about this

@jawwwn_ @elonmusk @davidfaber #Bittensor $TAO

“I am the reason OpenAI exists.” — @elonmusk “It seems weird that something can be nonprofit open source and transform itself into for-profit closed source.” “That’s like funding an org to save the Amazon rainforest and instead they became a lumber company and chop down the forest for money.” “That doesn’t seem legal.” “Fate loves irony—next level.” “I fully admit to being a huge idiot here.” Via @cnbc @davidfaber

@Corn_HODL Bitcoiners can’t stop talking about $KAS. Love it!

Meanwhile, Bitcoin keeps winning 🥇 #Bitcoin $BTC

@realvijayk @grok Newark, NJ

Guess this city correctly and win 500 $KAS (I'll have @grok randomly pick the winner on Monday, 4/27/26)

@corleonescrypto Check out $CRYSTLBALL

give me a coin that will do this.

@JeffBezos 2nd place is still good. Congrats!

@DreadBong0 @Dr_JohnFletcher Too bad they're not a #Bittensor subnet

$TIG will be leaving Base and moving to their own chain Confirmed by @Dr_JohnFletcher $TIG

@moshikrl @kaspaunchained @michaelsuttonil aiming for two HFs in 2026, cov++ beginning of May, DK+increased BPS end of Q3 god willing. both are aggressive timelines, but realistic with the newly expanded devforce

@TheTNetHunter Building things cost money.

are these AI agent subnets going to burn their owners emission? #SN66 #SN97 ? $TAO

Founder rugs have been destroying communities since the beginning of this industry 🚨 We now have BIT-0011 Proposal 3 days ago, a $TAO subnet founder dumped 37,000 $TAO worth of Alpha on his own community and walked away 3 days later, the protocol already has a proposed solution on the table. BIT-0011. Locked Stake and Conviction Let me break down what this actually means because it is one of the most important proposals in Bittensor's history, and we need to pay attention to it. Right now, a subnet owner registers once, pays the registration cost, and holds that subnet indefinitely. There is nothing on-chain requiring them to prove ongoing commitment. They can sit on the subnet doing nothing. Or worse, they can build trust, attract stakers, collect emissions, and then dump everything overnight with zero warning. That is exactly what happened with Covenant. Locked Stake fixes this at the protocol level. With math. Here is how it works. You lock your Alpha on a subnet for a chosen duration. That lock creates a conviction score. Conviction starts at 100% of the locked amount and decays linearly to zero as the lock approaches expiry. The longer you lock and the more you lock, the higher your conviction. Every 30 days, the protocol checks all conviction scores on every subnet. The staker with the highest conviction, EMA smoothed over time to prevent anyone from briefly locking a massive amount to snipe ownership becomes the subnet owner. Read that again 👀 Subnet ownership becomes a continuous contest of commitment. It's not a one-time purchase. It's an ongoing proof that you have skin in the game. What this means in practice. If a subnet owner wants to exit, their conviction starts decaying the moment they stop re-locking. Investors can see it happening in advance. The market can reprice the Alpha before the owner dumps. And any motivated team with higher conviction can challenge that ownership and take over the subnet. Learn Bittensor pointed out that Chutes currently holds roughly 37,000 $TAO worth of SN64 Alpha in a smart contract for owner emissions. If the Chutes team locked all of it for a long duration, any malicious actor trying to take over would need to exceed that amount and lock it for longer. The cost of attacking becomes massive. And if the existing community does not support the challenger, they can unstake and crash the Alpha value, making the takeover economically pointless. The conviction decay mechanic: The score starts at the full locked amount, then decays linearly toward zero as time passes. So if someone locks: 1,000 ALPHA for 100 days ▫️Day 1 = 1,000 conviction ▫️Day 50 = 500 conviction ▫️Day 100 = 0 conviction The important part: They cannot freely withdraw the locked portion while conviction exists. Only the unlocked portion is available to unstake. At expiry conviction hits zero, and everything unlocks. This means owners can not silently prepare a rug. If the subnet owner wants to keep ownership strength, they need to re-lock before conviction decays too far. Const said it himself: "Exploits are what teach a system its weak spots. The quicker you find them, the faster you learn." No other network in crypto has proposed anything like this 🔥 The standard response has always been that's just crypto or hire better lawyers. Bittensor's response is to build a cryptographic mechanism Locked ALPHA turns into a time-weighted commitment score. The more size + the more time remaining, the more ownership power you have. This is still a draft proposal. BIT-0011. Being discussed openly. The design may change. The network identified its weakness in real time, the founder proposed the fix within hours, and the community is now iterating on the solution in public That is what an adaptive stress-driven growth system looks like. Now, founder alignment market's can literally measure block by block $TAO Thanks to @learnbittensor Link: learnbittensor.org/concepts/token…

@ScopeDefi Solidified! $TAO

Is your conviction in $TAO still rock solid, or has it taken a hit?📝

@DfinityToday @covenant_ai $ICP in the toilet.

Bittensor $TAO crashed 27% after its biggest builder, @covenant_ai, abandoned the network, exposing the illusion of centralized control. Discover why $ICP is the only network with the architecture to run true, unstoppable on-chain AI. Read the full breakdown here ↓

@greybtc Guard rails are being put into place to mitigate risks like this going forward. $TAO is on sale. Load up.

What's your prediction for $TAO come the end of the year, with all that's happened today?

@2bitcrypto_YT You stopped buying?

Should we buy $TAO now or later !

I've been in #bittensor ecosystem since the early days. I've watched this network grow from a fringe idea to something @chamath talks about publicly. I need to say something, not as a commentator but as a early subnet co-founder and as someone with skin in the game. This is not the crisis it looks like. This is Governance Debt - the compounding friction that accumulates when a protocol's social layer fails to keep pace with its technical genius. #Bitcoin went through the block size wars. #Ethereum went through the DAO wars. Both emerged more legitimate, more anti-fragile, and ultimately more valuable. Not despite the conflict - because of how the community responded to it. The question isn't who is right. The question is whether the $TAO community has the maturity to convert this moment into structural progress. I believe it does. But only if we're honest about what this dispute actually revealed. To @const_reborn: You built something genuinely rare. The #dTAO architecture is elegant — using alpha token markets to allocate emissions through price signals rather than committee decisions is one of the most honest incentive designs in crypto. Stepping down from the Opentensor CEO role was a rare act of intellectual honesty that most founders never show. I genuinely respect it. But the community asks for one more step. Not because you're wrong on the technical facts of this specific dispute. But because the gap between technical correctness and community trust has become a liability for the protocol itself. When your alpha token sells - however small relative to your holdings - read as governance actions, that is a structural problem, not a perception problem. Champion a neutral audit layer. It costs you nothing and gains the protocol everything. To @DistStateAndMe: What your team proved with Covenant-72B cannot be unproved. A 72B parameter model trained permissionlessly across dozens of contributors on commodity hardware - cited by #Anthropic's co-founder, noticed by @chamath. That proof lives in the research, not in any one network's infrastructure. Build wherever you build next. But don't let the exit become the headline that overwrites the evidence. The temperatures are high because the stakes are genuinely historic. Grayscale has filed for $TAO spot ETF. Serious institutional capital is now watching this ecosystem with real intent. The worst possible thing we can do at this exact moment is look like every other #Web3 project that imploded over informal power disputes. Now here is what I actually want to say because this moment is too important to spend entirely on the flame war. The dispute exposed #Bittensor's most critical missing layer: there is no neutral, on-chain mechanism for subnet evaluation, governance arbitration or accountability. Subnet quality is vibes-based. Emissions integrity is vibes-based. Miner collusion detection is vibes-based. When conflicts arise, they resolve on #Twitter - not through transparent, verifiable process. That is not a criticism of any individual. It is a design gap that this community can fill, permissionlessly, without asking anyone's approval. Specifically: ① A Neutral 'Moody's for Subnets' - an independent Research Validator Node producing academic-grade subnet audits. If a subnet is on 100% burn code and not running, the data makes that case. Not a founder's alpha sell. Not a Discord moderator action. The data! This also solves the cold start problem and enables a base model for weights initialization. ② Proof-of-Intelligence as Protocol Standard (PoIP) - mandating Chain-of-Thought traces that validators can mathematically verify, combined with ZK Proof-of-Compute. If we cannot verify the reasoning, we should not reward the work. This transforms #Bittensor from a market of claims into a market of verifiable intelligence. That is what Jensen #nvidia is actually betting on. ③ Shapley Value Rewards: restructuring miner compensation around unique contribution to consensus, not consensus-matching. This kills collusion incentives at the protocol level. Structurally. No moderator required. ④ Cross-Subnet Schemas - Bittensor's ERC moment - #Ethereum's equivalent of ERC. 128 isolated subnets is a fragmented network. 128 subnets on shared interoperability standards is a composable intelligence economy. The difference is enormous and buildable right now. None of these require a multisig. None require the Opentensor Foundation. None require Const's approval or Sam's blessing. They require builders who understand the protocol deeply enough to ship them - and a community that demands them loudly enough to make them unavoidable. The $TAO community has been celebrating but we have been too passive on governance. We outsourced the decisions about what this network becomes to a very small number of people and then expressed surprise when informal power concentrated exactly where formal power was absent. Revolutionary technology demands unprecedented governance. We cannot import Web2 power structures onto #Web3 rails, call it decentralization and then act shocked when the gap shows. Build the Bittensor Protocol Infrastructure & Research Lab - a permissionless, replicable innovation hub. I am proposing an International AGI Reasoning Competition targeting the top 0.1% of global reasoning architects, beginning in emerging economies that this network was always supposed to serve. I am working on the synthetic dataset archive that captures miner reasoning as a commercial asset and turns it into a Process Reward Model - making AI safe by design, not by policy. The goal is a self-sustaining model accountable to no single person. Governed by the community. Funded by validator revenue & dataset licensing. This is the Protocol Memory that will outlive all of us - and the conflict that sparked it will be a footnote. I've been quiet for a while but not anymore. If you're a serious builder, researcher, validator or investor who wants to work on this - my DMs are open. Forward! $TAO #Bittensor #DecentralizedAI

At $TAOX, the largest public holder of $TAO tokens, we are super bullish. A) $TAO is the largest decentralized AI platform. B) $TAO is like an ETF of 128 AI state-of-the-art subnets. One subnet failing has zero effect. C) @const and the other developers on TAO have immense integrity. D) $TAO (with 128 valuable companies) has only a $3B market cap vs companies like OpenAI with $1.5Trillion in value. E) $TAO is evolving and will become only better with time, through governance and advances in tech. $TAO is not a crypto but an AI platform that is succeeding and under-noticed. $TAOX is the public vehicle to invest in TAO. We are invested in $TAO, the subnets, and own the largest media outlet about TAO, the @taodaily_io

All these people and accounts relentlessly fudding $TAO right now.. 1. Have no idea how the #bittensor network works 2. Basing everything off terrible second hand info 3. Couldn't tell you what Templar was working on 4. How subnets operate 5. Are desperate for $TAO to fail because they don't understand it Maybe take all that negative shit and actually try to work out what makes #Bittensor unique instead of talking crap on something you no nothing about Its so transparent $TAO
